It's beautiful and it's in my cart! I do love these modular creator products, so many possibilities.

I'm just deciding what else from your store will be joining it... not easy when my MM budget is all but gone and I want everything I see there. Lucky I kept a few dollars back just in case your store came on sale. :)

It looks beautiful. That grass looks fabulous. Is it transmapped? If it's not transmapped, are there morphs on the grass? For wind or footprints. That's probably a crazy thing to ask, but I thought I would since you are a master at making amazing things in 3D.

Also, is there scenery in the skydome? For example, that rolling hillside in the background, or the trees behind the fence in the image above this post. Are those included in the skydome? And if so, what's the resolution of the skydome?

Lots of questions, I know, but I can think of so many uses for this...

The grass is fully modelled and no transmaps are used in the grass or flowers for faster rendering. No morphs though I'm afraid :-) the skydome and 360 degree panoramic view are both included as separate props yes, as well as a light set. Can't remember the resolution off hand, I'll look it up in the morning and let you know :-)

Great, thanks. I love fully modeled grass and flowers. They tend to look good from all angels. No worries on the morphs - that would probably have to be a separate product all on its own :)

That 360 panoramic view looks fantastic. I can't wait to find out the resolution. I need to do high resolution renders since that's what's required for ebook covers these days, and one high resolution panaromaic view could provide a lot of mileage.

The panoramic view is a 13365 x 2490 seamlessly tiled image (taken in Derbyshire, UK) and the skydome is 4000x2000 :)

I still find myself regularly using the panoramic supplied with the Church set recently released. They're beautifully done and so flexible. The gorgeous grass combined with the panorama are reasons enough alone for this to go into the cart.

I took the The Church panorama in the grounds of Chatsworth House, during the same trip as the pano for the Gardens set :)

Great! Thanks for taking a look at it. There are so many useful pieces in this set, I'm very excited about it.

I have to say that the grass looks amazing when rendered out. Having actual geometry really adds a lot of little details which are missing in a lot of other grass props I've used in the past. After throwing a few things together I came up with this. I also put the Garibaldi plugin to work adding hair underneath her bonnet. It's near-impossible to get normal hairstyles to behave with headgear, but with LAMH or Gari you can simply style it to match. Handy.

The great thing about this set is it's entirely modular, so the pieces are useful for any outdoor scenes, not just gardens.

Thanks! That's a great render! :) The embossed framing is a nice touch too!

Thanks. The entire scene had about 1 million polygons, since there's a lot off-camera. I mostly wanted to see how Daz would cope with a large amount of grass. Surprisingly, it seemed to work without much slowdown.

It always comes down to a trade off between poly count verses texture detail :) I made some stupidly high poly grass initially, rendered the top view out as a texture, then lowered the poly significantly and used the high detail texture for the grass base. Rendered from any angle it didn't look any different to the high poly version :)
